The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

Journey at #2?  Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved that game, but I dunno about that...
 
I was upset with last year when the didn't even have MGS IV in the list.  Game looks and plays better than most games out today IMO.  It released in 2008.

I think its easily top 5...where you rank it in there is up to interpretation...but the game is phenomenal.

The whole experience is amazing, and if you went in unspoiled and didn't know what you were in for...it was amazing to share the journey with what you presumed was an computer-generated NPC only to realize at the end credits that you were teamed with another player: cooperating and striving toward a goal whilst only being able to communicate via gestures and monophonic sounds.

It was truly an unparalleled gaming experience...a once-in-a-lifetime kind of magic that can not be replicated even with additional play-throughs.

As I stated, I loved the game, and I did replay it multiple times as well.  It was a truly unique gaming experience, that's for sure.  I just wish it was longer I guess.  Like, significantly longer.

Did anyone really think you were playing with an NPC though?  I thought they made it pretty clear you were playing with someone else online.

I hope they add lots more with some good designs like Brokentier.
I can see myself getting a few if it comes to Europe that is

To each his own...but I'd argue that the game's brevity is part of its charm. It's what allows you to complete the whole campaign with a single companion by your side.
 
Well, I guess Uncharted's delay just means more GOTY awards for Bloodborne.
 
^ yea, Bloodborne  doesn't strike me as a game that critics would rally for come GOTY talks...and that is not a knock against the game in anyway, it just doesn't look like a darling for critics.

Definitely a valid point.  I guess for me it's just definitely not the #2 overall PS3 game that I played.  That doesn't mean I didn't love it, however.

Different strokes though.

Exactly, that's a niche gamer preference. GOTY is a title hardcore and casual gamers can pick up and enjoy. Souls games aren't those type of games.

You for FF

Me for BL

We too hype man, I was looking at the screenshots yesterday in the Xbox Store for BL, looks so sexy man, I can't wait.
 
Seriously though once Bethesda drops that megaton Fallout 4 2015 release date, GOTY is wrapped up.

Seriously...if they say Fallout 4 is completed and dropping this year, I'd lose my ******* mind right now.

There's certainly a soft spot in the AAA calendar between Batman in June and Phantom Pain in September.

Not saying it would win but I wouldn't call it niche.
 
I just think the last gen versions are going to suck.

MGS V looks great. Giant environments and 60 FPS.
